Leadership for a Safe Driving Culture

20 June 2022

Listen to Driving for Better Business ambassador Alison Moriarty on leadership for a safe driving culture when she addressed an audience of health and safety professionals recently in the Driver Safety Theatre sessions run by Driving for Better Business at the Health and Safety Event.

'Whilst drivers who don’t exhibit the correct behaviours can present a big risk, in safety, reputation and financial terms, but good drivers can be very effective brand ambassadors. It is imperative that you have a strong safety culture and that this is promoted throughout the whole company.''

The lowest standards that you display are the highest standards you can expect from people you manage. The same applies to contractors – you can’t expect a high standard if you don’t exhibit that yourself.'
